NHS Wales Splurging £139,000 on Diversity Hire While Biomedical Scientists Earn Just £44,000
Cash-strapped Public Health Wales—which racked up a staggering £183 million deficit last year—seems to have found a pot of gold after all. They’re splashing out on an Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Champion for the Women’s Health Network, with an annual salary that ranges from a jaw-dropping £105,504 to £139,882. Meanwhile, a Senior Biomedical Scientist, responsible for conducting vital tests to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, is only pulling in a paltry £44,000 a year….
Joanna Marchong, investigations campaign manager at the TaxPayers’ Alliance, said:
“Taxpayers in Wales are sick of seeing their hard-earned cash wasted on pointless non-jobs.”
The lucky DEI hire will be tasked with crafting “inclusive” leadership and services. The position offers a generous array of benefits, such as the option to work from home as desired and a 42% discount on a new bike for those who prefer cycling to the office. Nice work if you can get it…
